Tom Joyner Raising Money for Texas Southern University
|
Posted By: Reginald Culpepper on June 09, 2014 Join Tom Joyner at Grooves of Houston Where he will be Raising Money for Texas Southern University This month, Texas Southern University will be featured as one of the Tom Joyner Foundation Schools of the Month. Each morning of the month, TSU will be promoted by the “Fly Jock” himself on the Tom Joyner Morning Show to raise funds from listeners across the country. On June 20, Tom Joyner’s popular “Party with a Purpose” will be held at Grooves of Houston, 2300 Pierce St., Houston 77003. Funs this day will support TSU’s Band’s “Road to Canton” Caravan for the Enshrinement of Michael Strahan. Party with a Purpose attendees will be able to purchase tickets for a chance to win prizes and gifts. There will also be an auction. “I'm excited about the Tom Joyner Foundation's initiative to adopt Texas Southern University as the school of the month for June,” said President Rudley. "I applaud Tom Joyner for his vision - a vision so apropos to the times when students at colleges across the country are struggling for scholarships so that they can complete their degrees on time." Continuing Rudley stated, “Many times, our students attend college part time and work full time, and this delays their graduation by two, sometimes three years. With adequate scholarship monies, our students can concentrate fully on their studies instead of using study time to work part time jobs – jobs that I consider detractors and distractions. We are appreciative of all the efforts of the Tom Joyner Foundation. With Tom Joyner and his team supporting Historically Black Colleges and Universities, we are destined to succeed.” Make plans now to come out from 5 to 8 p.m. at Grooves of Houston to meet Joyner and his team, win prizes and enjoy the TSU Pep Band.
